Trevor Project

The LGBTQ+ Ally Training is designed to create dialogue around being an adult ally for LGBTQ+ youth by informing participants about common terminology, the “coming out” process, and challenges at home, in school, and in the community. Through activities in this course, participants are encouraged to explore their biases, build knowledge, and develop empathy. The Trevor Project also offers training for youth-serving professionals like foster parents, teachers, and social workers.

The Trevor Project is the leading suicide prevention and crisis intervention nonprofit organization for LGBTQ+ young people. They provide information and support to LGBTQ+ young people 24/7, all year round. In addition to the Ally Training, their Resource page offers free articles, resources, and guides on sexual orientation, LGBTQ+ mental health, gender identity, community resources, talking about suicide, a coming out handbook, and more.
